Not sure what to say?

Gary, Susan, Keva, Haley, and Lauren,
I am so sorry about the loss of your dear father and grandfather. Every time I saw him, he had a sweet word or something to say to make people smile. Praying for you all, Sherie & Ricky Evans

He served his Country, raised two outstanding children, Susan, and Gary. Gary, and Keva enriched his life with his granddaughters, and great grandchildren, whom he loved dearly. He was an accomplished man, who had interesting life experiences to share. I enjoyed spending time talking with him. My heart goes out to his family, and I know GOD will comfort them now, and all the days ahead. Your memories will keep him with you always.

I have so many good memories with Dee. Our breakfast and lunch outings. He would tell me about a new place to eat and we would go try it. The day he said let's go to "Another Broken Egg". I thought, "what is he getting me in to". Needless to say it was awesome and he loved their coffee mugs. He loved "Little Boy" hot dogs but since he could not get them on demand he liked "The Hot Dog King". He loved cooking. His cheese dip, his cakes. I would bring him fresh eggs. Dee I am gonna miss you.

Susan, Gary and Family, My heart is broke. What is hard is when death happens like this we as employees have to go on and do our job. We can't break down. But Thursday I think all left us because the tears were flowing. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Susan I am gonna miss seeing you up there and Gary I am gonna miss hearing about where you have traveled to month after month. He kept us updated. I love you guys

Susan and Gary, the residents at Arrowhead Cove would like to extend our deepest sympathy.Our home will not be the same without Dee.May you feel the comfort in Gods loving arms wrapped around you.

My sincerest condolences to all the family. I loved him like a grandparent and it was my pleasure to care for him over the past few years. He will be missed very much at Arrowhead Cove.

My deepest condolences to your dear family. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of his life and enjoying our time together. I will miss him, his humor and kindness.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
